New iPhone 4 won't show imported photos in camera roll

Recently upgraded the wife from her old 3G to the iPhone 4. She wanted to get her photos from her 3G onto her 4. Transferred the photos from the 3G onto my Mac using iPhoto and then synced the 4 with that library. The photos transferred over to the 4 no problem, we can even view them if we change the wallpaper settings. However, they don't show up in camera roll. Is there another way to transfer photos from one iphone to another and be able to view them in camera roll on the iPhone being transferred to?

Try basic troubleshooting of resetting or restarting the device.
If those do not work, re-sync the device with iTunes.

Import photos to Camera Roll

This there any way that I can import photos to Camera Roll? I've imported hundreads of photos from there before I restore my 3GS and I couldn't find any method to put them back afterwards... Thanks in advance!!

Pictures are never imported to Camera Roll. Camera Roll is only for temporary storage of pictures taken with the device.
Once the pictures have been copied off the device they can be synced back via iTunes but they will never appear in Camera Roll, they appear in folders instead.

Photos won't show up in my Camera Roll

I've had the 16GB 3G camera or a little over a year now (I think lol whenever it came out was when I bought it) and now whenever I take a photo, or edit one in an app, it saves the photo to the camera roll, but won't show up. It will take a photo, and when I look for it in the camera roll, it isn't there. BUT when I sync it to my computer, and import them, they show up there. I have tried restarting, and shutting down, and even backed up my iPhone today which took over an hour. I have lots of room left on my iPhone, so idk why it's not working. Anyone have any ideas?

Here is some info that might help.
(you can also use an App caleed 'FileAid')
If you have a finder-app on your phone you may navigate to the folder that stores the images(DCIM). Inside this folder there is a hidden folder called .MISC and inside this folder there’s a file called info.plist. This is the file that determines the filenames given to the photos and by deleting the whole .MISC folder you may solve your problem.
The system will generate a new folder upon next image taken and name this IMG_0001.JPG
I tried several ways and they did not work, but erasing everything in DCIM sub folders (MISC and 100apple) like Harry D said above helped me solve the problem.
Simple fix for those withOUT jailbreak.
1. Buy Phoneview - useful for a LOT of things actually, like backing up SMS, etc.
2. Open iphone,
3. Click on Settings
4. Select “Open Entire Disk”
5. Find MISC folder on file tree
6. Highlight and delete
7. Done!

Importing photos into Camera Roll with wrong orientation

I have been using Olympus OI-share app to import via WIFI the photos from my camera (Oly EM10) into ipad mini retinas- saving into the Camera Roll successfully. However ever since I have upgraded the IOS (may or may not be the cause), when I import the photos, the orientation of the photos were messed up, specifically Portraits are being saved as Landscape. It used to work fine but its a consistent problem now and affects all the portraits I have recently taken. I have reinstall OI-share app and that didn't help. I have tested the same app on iphone 5S and it is working perfectly. The problem seems only to appear in my ipad mini. I am not sure if there is a settings somewhere that affects this. The problem is made worst as even after I use the ipad photo edit function to change the orientation, this does not change the orientation of the same photo in my photostream.
Anyone whom has any experience/idea about this - please help!

Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

If you have Win 8.1 and the problem started after updating to the latest iTunes version then you seem to be out of luck since there are problem with the latest iTunes version and win 8.1

Photostream adding photos to camera roll...

I have a single photostream (one iCloud account) set up on 4 devices - iMac (running Aperture 3.3), two iPhone 4S's, and an iPad 2. In order to share photos over all devices, I used my wife's iCloud account to connect all the devices to one Photostream. It is working perfectly...except...
When a new photo is added to any device and the Photostream folders in Aperture on my iMac, it shows up in the Photostream album all the devices just as intended...except for my wife's iPhone, where they show up in the "camera roll" album, her Photostream folder is empty (always). If my wife takes a photo, it shows up in her camera roll, makes it to all the other devices via photostream, but never makes it to the photostream on her phone...it's as if the camera roll photo album is a surrogate for the photostream album on her phone.
The obvious issue is that the photos that are loading up in her "camera roll" are then backed up via the iCloud in lieu of the Photostream (which doesn't count against your total iCloud memory if I understand it correctly) and is using up our iCloud memory extremely fast - previoulsy we never used more than 6-7GB...now, since setting up photostream, we are at 24.5GB on a 25GB account and getting space warnings.
As a result, we've had to turn off photostream for the time being, or, i suppose we could buy ungodly amounts of iCloud memory to compensate for this (we are the proud parents of a photogenic toddler - arent they all?? - and take a lot of photos), I can't help but feel this should be working better...any thoughts of what might be happening? I'm sure I am missing something simple...but what is it?
FYI - I have restored her iPhone, reset the photostream, deleted the photos in her camera roll...all to no avail...As I noted, all the other devices seem to be behaving as expected.

From this article:

iOS devices: New photos you take are automatically uploaded to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and are connected to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream does not push photos over cellular connections.

I bought a new iphone and want to import my photos that were on my other phone

I bought a new iphone and want to import my photos that were on my old iphone; hoping they are on the icloud somewhere

I am assuming that if it was done at the Verizon store that it was an iCloud backup.
On the phone, go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
When the phone reboots it will be back to factory. Go through the setup and when it asks if you want to setup as a new phone or from a backup, choose to restore from iCloud Backup.
The screen will look like this:
Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
If you are not sure if it is backed up and you have anything worth while on there now then you should backup before you start.

IPhone won't show up in itunes but does show up in iphoto (?)

So my iphone won't show up in itunes, but is recognized by iphoto.
I did recently sync the music on the phone with another itunes on a windows pc because I was getting on a flight and wanted to hear the show that I had just seen and downloaded. Could that be the issue?
I figured when I got home I would just re-sync it to my own itunes and it would just delete what I had already listened to but no such luck. It is not even recognized: itunes could not open iphone due to unkown error.
I've already used the troubleshooter, and have restarted etc. Any ideas?
Any help is much appreciated.

Try another usb port or this:

Updated to 3.1.3, now iPhone won't show up in iTunes

Updated to 3.1.1, now my iPhone won't show up in iTunes. iTunes starts up when I plug in my iPhone, but then SyncServer.exe just sits there running taking up 50% of the processor. Everything worked fine before the 3.1.3 upgrade, now it doesn't.

I have to uninstall it to get the update to work, then reinstall it.
Arrgh. Seen that before with CA too, Greg. (I've seen a couple of error 9s caused by CA just in recent days.)
There's some advice from CA on configuring it for iTunes in kalda01's post here:

(Fingers crossed, one of those documents will be applicable to your particular CA product.)

I recently sold my old iPhone to someone. Now everything I text on my new iPhone is also showing on the phone I sold. Can someone instruct me on how to control this? I'm confused.

Why was the phone not erased prior to selling it?

Events created on iPad and/or iPhone won't show up in iCal

Events created on iPad and/or iPhone won't show up in iCal. I do not use Mobile Me, or Google (I learned that one the hard way). I am getting tired of creating events (and contacts) and then having to remember to go back on my Macbook and create them all over again. Any ideas?

Did you try these?...

Did you plug directly into the computer and not a hub? Try different USB ports.
